This video is proof of how my mind works! lol! I see something and start thinking of one thing, then another, then another. Somehow I end up right back where I started but with a twist to the original concept. O.o

I fell in love with Katy Perry's Mint Green Gucci dress at this year's Grammy Awards!

That particular shade of green always reminds me of the 60's & 70's. When Katy Perry herself said her look was inspired by Priscilla Presley I got even more ideas! I remembered I have this really pretty Mint eye shadow by Stila called Cha Cha  & another shade similar by Make Up For Ever (106) THEN.....I remembered Kevyn Aucoin's book Face Forward.  In it he had given Supermodel, Christy Turlington a makeover to resemble actress/model Marissa BerinsonKaty Perry Inspired Grammy Makeup Tutorial-Mint Green Eyes
I wanted to do a modern take on it without compromising the original look. Clearly, the pencil thin eyebrows & type of lashes used had a LOT to do with the finished look. Katy Perry Inspired Grammy Makeup Tutorial-Mint Green Eyes To keep it more modern I made my brows thinner but didn't get rid of them completely. I also applied a lot of mascara to the bottom lashes but didn't separate them as they were in the original picture. I showed you (in my video) how you can also skip the faux lashes all together and keep the look simple & focused on the color. I suggested swapping out the green for a pastel pink, blue or lavender! 
Either way I thought this was fun to do!
